One of the great ways Christians represent Jesus Christ in the world and guide those who we influence towards God is through generosity. We have been instructed to be loving, caring, and extremely generous. When Christians are generous, they stand out in the world in a wonderful way! Be encouraged that you can make a difference through your generosity!

Today Pastor Kevin begins a message series on stewardship: Saved by a Generous God to be a Generous People. Adam Hamilton states that "generosity is a fruit of spiritual growth…because giving requires that we trust God to supply our needs.” Many of us are wealthy by the world’s standards; the top 1% of wage earners in the world earn an average of $48,000 a year. In 1 Timothy 6, we find four commandments to the wealthy that show us how to maintain a balanced life and make the most of our resources.
